@Bernd_Kaiser_BD Nike’s executive team really thought they had mastered the art of corporate genius.

Then BMW management showed up and raised the bar.

An extraordinary competition in leadership, strategy and impeccable judgment. 👏

Klart en vinderstrategi af BMW, at lægge sig ud med ca 1/3 af de tyske vælgere.

Ich habe heute den Einkauf angewiesen, den Leasingvertragsentwurf für den für mich ab März 2027 geplanten Geschäftswagen der Marke BMW kommentarlos dem BMW-Autohaus zurückzusenden und jegliche Kommunikation mit dem Hersteller BMW zu beenden.

Zudem informiert der Einkauf meines Unternehmens die Firma BMW über unsere Absicht, künftig konkurrierende Hersteller für betrieblich genutzte Fahrzeuge zu bevorzugen.

Mitarbeiter und Betriebsrat sind informiert.

Zur Info: Ich bin als Unternehmer und Arbeitgeber Stammwähler der Splitterpartei FDP.

When Spain and Brazil socialist leaders are facing election issues and a possible end of their career simultaneously, I call it a beautiful, beautiful day!
Socialism sucks, kids. Everyone, who lives in socialism, will vote against it, if they‘re still allowed to vote, of course.

Som altid, når statsadministrationen begår monumentale fejl, er der én ting, man kan være sikker på: Ingen bliver holdt ansvarlige.

Når man ihukommer de drakoniske straffe, der rammer selv små idealistiske foreninger for overtrædelse af GDPR-regler, hvad ville så være passende for de politikere, embedsmænd og den virksomhed, der er medansvarlige for den største og mest uoprettelige datalæk i Danmarkshistorien?

[Carsten @Hald76]

Præcis. Ansvaret for den udvikling ligger hos de gamle europæiske magtpartier, som svigtede deres vigtigste opgave: at holde det europæiske skib på ret “midter” kurs.

"The need to move the bombers out of the base, R.A.F. Fairford, was deemed so urgent that some of the planes and their flight crews left while aerial refueling aircraft were still being scrambled to support their flights to the United States."

French 🇫🇷 parents fucked their own children like bitches.

For decades, they were told that France needed more workers, more labour, more immigration, more “dynamism.”

At the same time, their own children were entering a labour market where stable entry-level jobs were disappearing, wages were stagnating, housing was becoming harder to access, and competition at the bottom was intensifying.

And almost nobody wanted to connect the two questions.

You could talk endlessly about youth unemployment.
You could talk endlessly about immigration.
But suggesting that labour supply, wages, housing, schools and public services might interact was treated as morally suspect.

So an entire generation was asked to accept higher competition, weaker bargaining power, overcrowded services and a harder path into adulthood — while being told that questioning any part of the model was shameful.

Then the same parents looked at their children at thirty, still struggling to afford housing, still moving from contract to contract, still unable to build stable lives, and asked:

“Why is your generation so pessimistic?”

No idea.

Absolutely mysterious.

@jonatanpallesen Danish media’s core competence is not international coverage. They excel in municipal election coverage and sometimes they also get the weather forecasts right.

A secret cargo for the NROL by Falcon Heavy...and a 14th flight for Falcon Heavy with a perfect record of success
Four boosters returned to earth
All of this IN ONE DAY.

At first, Jean-Pierre did not understand.

He watched the evening news, paid his taxes, voted responsibly and believed what respectable people told him.

1. France needed immigration because the economy needed workers.

2. Diversity was an opportunity.

3. Public services were under pressure because they lacked funding.

4. Disorder at school was caused by inequality.

5. Crime statistics required context.

6. Anyone who connected these things too quickly was probably an extremist.

Then his children started coming home from school saying they could barely hear the teacher.
Half the lesson was spent restoring order.
Teachers changed constantly.
Some simply disappeared for weeks.

Jean-Pierre complained once, politely.
The administration explained that the situation was “challenging” and that the school was developing an “inclusive pedagogical response.”
Jean-Pierre went home reassured.
There were professionals dealing with it.

His neighbourhood changed too.

Shops closed.
Others appeared.
Groups of men occupied the same corners every evening.
His wife stopped taking one street after dark.

Jean-Pierre noticed all of this, but he had also learned that noticing patterns was dangerous.

So every event remained an isolated event.
One closed shop meant nothing.
One assault meant nothing.
Ten incidents meant ten unrelated incidents.
Only a racist would connect dots.

Then his daughter was sexually assaulted by a man who had recently arrived in France.

Jean-Pierre was devastated.

But almost immediately he began policing his own thoughts.
The attacker was an individual. Of course.
One must never generalise.
The television explained that exploiting such crimes politically was irresponsible.
A minister warned against “stigmatisation.”
Jean-Pierre found himself nodding through tears.
What had happened to his daughter was monstrous, but the truly frightening possibility, apparently, was that somebody somewhere might vote for the wrong party because of it.

Nothing changed.

His son’s school became worse.
His daughter stopped going out alone.
His wife wanted to move.
The police were exhausted.
The teachers were exhausted.
The hospitals were exhausted.
Jean-Pierre was exhausted.

Yet every explanation he had been given required him to believe that each deterioration was temporary, accidental, exaggerated or caused by something entirely unrelated to the deterioration immediately beside it.

And whenever somebody proposed that perhaps the country had made serious mistakes — about migration, authority, education, policing, integration, punishment or borders — Jean-Pierre knew the correct answer.

“Careful. That sounds like the far right.”

So he remained reasonable.

He remained moderate.

He remained informed.

He remained completely incapable of drawing a conclusion from his own life.

So at first, Jean-Pierre did not understand.

And he still does not understand.
